Close To You

1971

Why do birds suddenly appear
Ev’ry time you are near?
Just like me
They long to be
Close to you

Why do stars fall down from the sky
Ev’ry time you walk by?
Just like me
They long to be
Close to you

On the day that you were born the angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So, they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold
And star-light in your eyes of blue

That is why all the boys in town
Follow you all around
Just like me
They long to be
Close to you

On the day that you were born the angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So, they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold
And star-light in your eyes of blue

That is why all the boys in town
Follow you all around
Just like me
They long to be
Close to you

Just like me
They long to be
Close to you

_{Hal David, Burt Bacharach}
